Qutaybah ibn Sa’īd narrated to us, Mughīrah ibn ‘Abd al-Raḥmān al-Qurashī narrated to us, from Abū al-Zinād, from al-A’raj,

from Abū Hurayrah (may Allāh be content with him), who said: The Messenger of Allāh said: “Ibrāhīm (upon whom be peace) circumcised himself when he was eighty years old, using a qaddūm (adze i.e. an arched blade).”

Abū al-Yamān narrated to us, Shu’ayb informed us, Abū al-Zinād narrated to us: “bi al-qadūm” — with a light pronunciation (i.e. without emphasis). ‘Abd al-Raḥmān ibn Isḥāq followed him in narrating it from Abū al-Zinād. ‘Ajlān also followed him from Abū Hurayrah. And Muḥammad ibn ‘Amr narrated it from Abū Salamah.
